I hate the way it changed everything. The size of my waist, even the shape of my face. I hate the way it destroyed my morals, burned them to nothing right in front of my face, and how it gives me every trait that I absolutely hate. I hate how it gives me vision that accents every flaw on my skin, I hate the way I grind my teeth, and how I can never fall asleep. I hate how I can’t sit still, and how I’m intrigued by all of the meaningless things. I hate how empty it has made me, and how it has introduced me to much darker things. Convincing me that crystal and tar is all I’ll ever need. I hate how it makes me feel too powerful, too confident, too invincible. I hate how it makes me speak my mind, even if it gets me in trouble. Addiction has taught me a lot. It has allowed me to look through the eyes of someone I never thought I’d be. By becoming a shell of a human being, I have been given the ability to be reborn. Gaining a new found passion in the world around me.
